Q: selected item deleting with the rest of list in custom listview trouble My custom listview row has remove button. I'm trying to delete specific item in listview with this remove button. (Remove from favorites action). I can delete selected item but rest of the list (items under the selected item) deleting with it. Top part still stay. How can I fix this? Thanks in advance.
FavoriteListAdapter :
public class FavoritesListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> {

    private Activity context;
    private List<String> radioName;
    private List<String> listenerNumbers;

    public FavoritesListAdapter(Activity context, List<String> radioName, List<String> listenerNumbers) {
        super(context, R.layout.custom_favorites_listview, radioName);

        this.context=context;
        this.radioName=radioName;
        this.listenerNumbers=listenerNumbers;
    }

    @NonNull
    @Override
    public View getView(final int position, View convertView, final ViewGroup parent) {

        View r= convertView;
        FavoritesViewHolder viewHolder = null;

        if (r == null) {
            LayoutInflater layoutInflater= context.getLayoutInflater();
            r= layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_favorites_listview,null,true);
            viewHolder = new FavoritesViewHolder(r);
            r.setTag(viewHolder);
        }

        else {
            viewHolder = (FavoritesViewHolder) r.getTag();
        }

        viewHolder.row_tv_favorites_radio_name.setText(radioName.get(position));
        viewHolder.row_img_favorites_radio_icon.setImageResource(R.drawable.radio_logo_renkli);
        viewHolder.row_tv_favorites_listener_numbers.setText("Listeners : " + listenerNumbers.get(position));

        viewHolder.button_remove_from_favorites_list.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {

                listenerNumbers.remove(position);
                radioName.remove(position);

                SharedPreferences settings = context.getSharedPreferences("PREFS", 0);
                final SharedPreferences.Editor editor = settings.edit();
                editor.remove("radio_link"+ position);
                editor.remove("radio_name" + position);
                editor.remove("listener_number" + position);
               // editor.clear();
                editor.commit();
               // FavoritesFragment.radio_name_list.remove(position);
               // FavoritesFragment.radio_link_list.remove(position);
               // FavoritesFragment.listener_numbers.remove(position);
                notifyDataSetChanged();
            }
        });

        return r;

    }

    class FavoritesViewHolder {
        TextView row_tv_favorites_radio_name;
        TextView row_tv_favorites_listener_numbers;
        ImageView row_img_favorites_radio_icon;
        Button button_remove_from_favorites_list;
        FavoritesViewHolder(View v) {
            row_tv_favorites_radio_name= (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.txt_radio_name_favorites);
            row_tv_favorites_listener_numbers = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.txt_listener_numbers_favorites);
            row_img_favorites_radio_icon = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.img_radio_icon_favorites);
            button_remove_from_favorites_list = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id.remove_favorites_from_list_button);
        }
    }

}

In my PlayRadioFragment, users have add favorite button, and values sent FavoritesFragment with unique keys
 public static int incrementedValue = 0;

     SharedPreferences settings = getActivity().getSharedPreferences("PREFS", 0);
        final SharedPreferences.Editor editor = settings.edit();

        add_favorites_button= (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.add_favorites_button);
        add_favorites_button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {

                editor.putString("radio_link"+ incrementedValue, radio_play_link);
                editor.putString("radio_name" + incrementedValue, radio_name);
                editor.putString("listener_number" + incrementedValue, listener_number);
               // editor.clear();
                editor.commit();

                incrementedValue++;
            }

        });

And this is my FavoritesFragment :
public class FavoritesFragment extends Fragment {

    public static FavoritesListAdapter adapter_2;

    public FavoritesFragment() {
        // Required empty public constructor
    }

    TextView radio_name_txt, radio_link_txt;

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // Inflate the layout for this fragment
        View view=  inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_favorites, container, false);

        final List<String> radio_name_list = new ArrayList<>();
        final List<String> radio_link_list = new ArrayList<>();
        final List<String> listener_numbers = new ArrayList<>();

        for (int i=0; i<Integer.MAX_VALUE; i++) {
            SharedPreferences settings = getActivity().getSharedPreferences("PREFS",0);
            String radio_name = settings.getString("radio_name" +i, "");
            String radio_link = settings.getString("radio_link" +i, "");
            String listener_number = settings.getString("listener_number" +i, "");

            if (TextUtils.isEmpty(radio_name)){break;}
            else {radio_name_list.add(radio_name);}

            if (TextUtils.isEmpty(radio_link)){break;}
            else {radio_link_list.add(radio_link);}

            listener_numbers.add(listener_number);
        }

        PlayRadioFragment.incrementedValue = radio_name_list.size();

        ListView listView_favorites = (ListView) view.findViewById(R.id.listview_favorites);
        adapter_2 = new FavoritesListAdapter(getActivity(), radio_name_list, listener_numbers);
        listView_favorites.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int position, long l) {
                PlayRadioFragment fragment= new PlayRadioFragment();
                Bundle bundle= new Bundle();
                FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
                bundle.putString("radio_play_links", radio_link_list.get(position));
                bundle.putString("radio_name", radio_name_list.get(position));
                bundle.putString("listener_number", listener_numbers.get(position));
                fragment.setArguments(bundle);
                fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null);
                fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.frame_layout,fragment);
                fragmentTransaction.commit();

            }
        });
        listView_favorites.setAdapter(adapter_2);

        return view;
    }

A: This doesn't  not remove element from the adapter, only from your custom arrays:
 listenerNumbers.remove(position);
 radioName.remove(position);

In additional, you need to remove the item from the internal ArrayList of the adapter. Do it like this:
remove(getItem(position));

Generally, it is not good approach to manage 2 parallel custom arrays in the adapter (listenerNumbers, radioName in your case). Better to define Item class, containing both those fields, and provide ArrayList of the objects of this class to adapter as parameter (instead of array of Strings like in your case).  And also o implement supporting XML for the item, that will have both items (TextView and RadioButton).

A: Create Your Object class As:
public class DemoGson {

    private  String radio_link,radio_name,listener_number;

    public String getRadio_link() {
        return radio_link;
    }

    public void setRadio_link(String radio_link) {
        this.radio_link = radio_link;
    }

    public String getRadio_name() {
        return radio_name;
    }

    public void setRadio_name(String radio_name) {
        this.radio_name = radio_name;
    }

    public String getListener_number() {
        return listener_number;
    }

    public void setListener_number(String listener_number) {
        this.listener_number = listener_number;
    }
}

While Adding data to it create new object and add data then insert that particular object to arraylist and pass arraylist to your adapter
ArrayList<DemoGson> arrayList = new ArrayList<>();

        DemoGson demoGson = new DemoGson();
        demoGson.setRadio_link("yourlink");
        demoGson.setRadio_name("yourname");
        demoGson.setListener_number("2");

        arrayList.add(demoGson);

and then
  adapter_2 = new FavoritesListAdapter(getActivity(),arrayList);

and in adapter just remove position from your arraylist

When I was much, much younger, I aspired to be an opera diva. I had the voice, and I really could knock out a mean Pagliacci, and I could sing most of Madame Butterfly arias, but I had one big problem.


Whether you're living the life of a performer or looking into it, there is one personality trait that you MUST have in order to be a professional singer. You have to be able to deal with rejection, and deal with it often.
I've seen it countless times, both in friends and students. They'll come to me all excited because they've finally muster up the courage to follow their dream of becoming a professional singer/performer. Judging by the look on their face, they're ready to take on the world.
But all too often, a month or two later there excitement turns into doubt after a series of carefully prepared auditions that resulted in zero calls. Then, they start questioning what they really want. They start wondering whether or not their goal is even possible.
Now don't get me wrong, not everyone is cut out for the stage. But, if you're talented and willing to learn, don't count yourself out too quickly because everyone who's ever made it has had to deal with rejection, and probably a whole lot more than you have.
The truth is everyone who does something extraordinary fails, and they FAIL OFTEN. Thomas Jefferson failed thousands of times before creating a light bulb. The Beatles, arguably the biggest band the world has ever known, was refused a record contract by a thick headed producer who thought the rock & roll era was over. Heck, even my college professor, an amazingly talented operatic tenor, said for every 20 auditions he does, he gets hired for one.
The point is we all fail. And, we all fail regularly. In order to learn how to succeed, we have to be willing to continue to move forward, learn from our failures, and use that new knowledge to get ahead. If you do this, failure isn't failure at all, but an opportunity to learn. When you make this mental shift, it's impossible to fail unless you give up!
So, keep moving forward and I wish you all the best and as always, Happy Singing!

Biocentrum je biotop nebo soubor biotopů v krajině, který svým stavem a velikostí umožňuje trvalou existenci přirozeného či pozměněného, avšak přírodě blízkého ekosystému. Jinými slovy, je to je geograficky vymezená oblast, která vhodným stavem přírodních podmínek umožňuje existenci přirozených – tedy v podstatě původních – živočišných a rostlinných společenstev.

Pojem biocentrum vychází z Územního systému ekologické stability, kde spolu s biokoridorem tvoří jeho dva základní články.

Velikost biocentra

Biocentrum musí mít určitou velikost, aby umožnilo trvalou existenci tohoto ekosystému. Biocentrem tedy např. nebude Jelení příkop pod Pražským hradem. Na jednu stranu je sice dosti hustě zalesněn a vyskytují se zde některé typické živočišné a rostlinné druhy, ale svou rozlohou asi 5 hektarů neumožňuje trvalý život většiny druhů charakteristických pro tento biotop. Naopak Kunratický les je se svými 300 ha typické pražské biocentrum.

Cinencuentro [es] was one of the first blogs dedicated to film in Peru. Juan Arellano interviewed two of the blog site's members Lucho Ramos and Laslo Rojas for an article on the site BlogsPerú [es]. This is an excerpt of the interview and to read the entire article in Spanish, please visit the original link [es].
Lucho Ramos: Even though I studied Electronic Engineering, I have always been interested in audiovisual communication. I am from Cusco, but I have been working in Lima for more than 10 years and currently I am part of TV Cultura, an NGO and where I feel like a fish in water. During this time, I developed a love for film that has brought me to become a part of Cinencuentro. It was all Laslo's fault that I began to blog :), it must have been in 2004 when I first heard about blogs (La Petite Claudine was one of the first blogs that I read), but I didn't realize what a blog was, even though in my defense, I have been connected to the internet since 1995, including forming part of a mailing list about Amiga computers and later on the Tolkien Peru mailing list. I can communicate in English and Quechua. I am married to Mary and have a son, Joca, who is 11 years old. Both of them have blogs, and I am very happy. My other hobbies are music, reading, traveling and working under pressure.
Laslo Rojas: I am 27 years old. I am a graduate in Information Technology. I found out about blogs in mid-2002, when I visited some Peruvian LiveJournal pages. I later found out about Cinencuentro during its original phase and later online. In this group, I made great friends that helped me with personal and even, professional growth. Thanks to Lucho I became a part of TV Cultura. Little by little, I was drawn closer to their new projects and initiatives and it was also a desirable working environment. I became familiar with the beginnings of National Links, above all in the technical aspects and later I was added to the team of NAPA. As one might say at that moment, "my life changed." I try to find time during the week to watch a movie in the theaters or on DVD, read a good book, listen to mp3s on my cell phone for those trips to the "73", watch the latest episode of Lost, 24 or Heroes, or in the best of cases spend some time talking with friends.
Juan: And how did Cinencuentro begin?
Lucho: At the beginning of 2003, we came together for the first time after spending a long time of exchanging messages on the movie list of RCP, and we became seven friends that went to the movies more than once a week and we gathered to talk about movies over the course of many hours.
Laslo: In those gatherings, the Cinencuentro group was formed and months later a Blogger blog was created, which was to find a way to publish and share small reviews about new movies amongst ourselves . Months passed and the 9th Lima Film Festival arrived, and with that excuse we decided to put all our movie-going interests on the blog. After this, we wanted more and we decided to add news, conduct interviews, share soundtracks, cover movie openings, distribute information about movie clubs, and highlight everything that is directly or indirectly related with film.
Juan: How do you share the work between the team?
Laslo: In a mobile form of way, the daily work was conducted by Antolín Prieto until a few weeks ago, and now Jorge Esponda and Miguel Piscoya are now in charge to create the content that can be found on Cinencuentro. I also help with the editing, publishing of content, general administration, moderation of comments, updating of static content and publicity. Lucho is also in charge of general administration, and above all adding new ideas for content. Anto is in charge of reviewing the daily edition and suggesting new content. That is the core team.
Lucho: Nothing would work without the contribution from all of the members of Cinencuentro, and their contribution varies according to the free time of each. Currently the most active contributors are Gabriel Quispe, Juan Jose Beteta, and Blanca Vásquez (from Spain) for the movie reviews. Mary Panta is involved with the general production and Rolando Jurado is involved with the photos. Actually, it is during the important events, such as festivals where the production increases. For example, at the beginning of this year, Rodrigo Portales, Luis Carlos Burneo and Juan Daniel Fernández went to cover the International Independent Film Festival in Buenos Aires. In all, I would say that there are about 15 people that contribute content on a regular basis and another 15 that do so sporadically.
Juan: What is the difference between the original Cinencuentro and the current version?
Laslo: A lot, from the ability to publish with blogs to the number of collaborators of the blog (more than 30) to the primary interests that are reflected in the blog. For example, we began to focus on movie reviews, then the content shifted to the most commented and popular films, now we are placing emphasis on that cinema that we would like to see, which unfortunately does not arrive to our theaters, not only in Peru, but all of Latin America.
What do you think of Peruvian Cinema?
Laslo: Peruvian cinema as it is now, is ripe for a type of resurgence, in the capital and above all in other cities across the country. I see our cinema with a lot of curiosity, with interest and in some cases with a certain subjectivity, when one watches the work of people that one might know in one way or the other. Actually, I do not know all of the details about the reality of film in past decades, but one can see now the relative boom with the appearance of many new directors. In any case, I hope that this is a time to consolidate Peruvian cinema.
Lucho: As Laslo says, this is a fascinating time for Peruvian cinema, because I think that finally there is a good number of directors, especially young one, with the desire for renewal and change. Our hope is that these directors continue to take risks and tell their stories without excuses. It is interesting to note that many of these directors are also movie lovers, thanks to a large part to the availability of pirated material. On the other hand, one must take into account that in Cinencuentro, there are many directors, more than half of us have projects on the way or have a project in mind. That makes us have a hand in many parts, dedicated to film because we are part of the art. To balance things, we must also say that there is a lot of bad Peruvian cinema.
Juan: There are plenty of blogs and people that write about cinema. How do you see these blogs, are they of good quality? Are there some that should be highlighted?
Lucho: I think we are seeing the initial phase of the phenomenon, as there is definitely a good amount of blogs dedicated to film, some are maintained by just one person (La tetona de Fellini) and others are group efforts (Los Cinerastas, La Cinefilia no es patriota, El buen cine) and others. There are some by critics well-established in the field (Páginas del Diario de Satán, La soga), not including the blogs of film companies, production houses, unions, movie clubs, etc. I think the most interesting are the blogs maintained by people without experience in critique or journalism. They tend to improve the quality of reviews and serve as practice ground for future critics or directors. On the other hand, the established critics are starting to use blogging tools in order to publish their articles on online magazines or newspaper sections. I think we are forming a movie enthusiast blogging community that should serve – among other things – to promote a common agenda (elevate the level of movies in the theaters, complain about the inaction of the State, to have a presence in the traditional media, festival coverage, but at the same time maintain independence and healthy competition.
Cineencuentro. Could you tell me what is the position of the cinema in Peru in accordance with Quality? or the idea is only to fill the halls.
Do you think Peru could lead the cinema in Latin America? and how?
Do you think Peru is in the possition to bring sometrhing new to the cinema, specially in Latin America?

Flynn told executives, board members and shareholders who attended the bank's annual meeting at the KI Center that the Green Bay-based bank intends to focus on core services while approving another $125 million to purchase outstanding shares of the company.
"Our focus in 2015 is centered on four key areas: Enhancing the customer experience, evolving our overall delivery model to meet the needs of our customers, managing our expenses and delivering strong, well-balanced earnings from our core businesses," Flynn said.
Associated Bank's annual earnings per share increased 5.5 percent from $1.10 in 2013 to $1.16 in 2014, and its loan portfolio increased 8 percent from $15.6 billion to $16.8 billion in 2014. Its net assets increased 7.7 percent from $23.3 billion in 2013 to $25.1 billion in 2014.
But Flynn said profit margins from interest declined as the availability of low-interest financing puts a strain on the bank and its customers.
"A low interest rate environment continues to challenge both the banking industry's margins as well as our customers who are looking for returns on their investments," Flynn said. "Competition for loans has increased as banks seek asset growth. As a result, we're continuing to see aggressive structures and pricing that doesn't equate with the risk in some of the markets we operate in."
The bank's executive team plans to continue its focus on long-term growth strategies, while the bank's board of directors will continue a stock repurchase program for the fourth straight year.
On Tuesday, the board authorized the repurchase of another $125 million of common stock. The board authorized the repurchase of $120 million of stock in July 2013 and again in March 2014. A news release indicated Associated still has $46 million to spend from the March 2014 authorization, for a total of $171 million available this year.
Flynn said the bank bought back 14 million shares last year and now has 153.5 million shares outstanding.
Shareholders who attended Tuesday's meeting did so for a variety of reasons, but one Neenah couple did so to bid farewell to former board member, Ron Harder, who left the board in October.
"Ron Harder is a perfect example of what you want in a director," Neenah resident Marlene Noren said. "He's a good role model. You could trust him and if you needed something he'd be there. I would vote for him for president."

Tati Westbrook tears up in new video as she explains why she took down James Charles

Tati Westbrook explains why she took down James Charles (Picture: Tati Westbrook)
Tati Westbrook has explained why she took down James Charles in a new video.
The YouTubers engaged in a public fallout last week, seeing the 19-year-old cancelled by a number of his fans.
However, it seems the beauty mogul didn't want any of this to happen, and has now returned to the streaming network in order to give her side of the story.
Talking in the 18 minute clip, Tati could be seen getting emotional as she revealed her reasons for calling out her now ex-BFF.
The 37-year-old said: 'I knew this would cause a lot of controversy I know that but I didn't think it would get to this magnitude.
'I do really want the hate to stop I want the picking sides and the abusive memes and the language and all of that I really hope on both sides it can stop. That's not why I made the video.
She insisted there is no hate on her side (Picture: Tati Westbrook)
'This was really a wake up call and me trying to reach someone I found completely unreachable.'
Brushing tears away from her eyes, the influencer added: 'No one was really stopping him, no one was saying anything and I thought, "this is going to end badly and I'm going to have to sit here the rest of my life and feel like I never said anything."'
Tati went on to explained how she had hoped the video would be a wake up call for James, who she says she 'still loves.'
'I don't hate James Charles,' the star insisted: 'I don't want you guys hating on him. I cant even go online right now, it's painful to watch someone that you have cared about be dragged and to know that this all started because of me. And I don't think anyone deserves that.
She's hoping to meet up with James (Picture: Getty images)
'I hope this inspired more parents to have conversations with their kids, because we're losing that, we're losing touch with what they are watching and what they are emulating and that's a big button for me.'
She told her subscribers that she is hoping to meet up with James in order to tell him that she does not hate him, adding: 'I need distance from the relationship and I don't think it will be repaired.
'I wanted the opportunity to face to face tell him that I don't hate him and I love him and I don't think he'll get that for a really long time, and I don't think any one will and I don't want you guys to subscribe or feel bad for me, this is not about me.

Politics Unbound
Prometheus Bound, Peter Paul Rubens, c. 1611–1612. Image: Philadelphia Museum of Art.
When I am fed up with humans driving our climate out of the hospitable zone, I find solace at one of my favorite sanctuaries of civilization: The Philadelphia Museum of Art. I head up the Rocky stairs and under the stone columns and make a beeline for the masterpiece by Peter Paul Rubens titled "Prometheus Bound." You may recall that the bad day the Greek god is having is Zeus's punishment for giving humans fire. Rubens had no idea when he put oil to canvas over 400 years ago what an apt metaphor the tale would be for the unleashing of fossil fuels, from the first blast-furnace fire in Coalbrookdale, England in 1709 to the conflagration which obliterated Lytton, British Columbia in July 2021, immediately after the town's high-temperature record was broken by a whopping 8ºF (4.6ºC).
Lytton, British Columbia burned to the ground hours after it reached 121 degrees F, the third record-breaking day in a row, a condition determined to be "virtually impossible without . . . climate change." Image: Jack Zimmerman, The Guardian.
In this second blog post documenting my emergence from climate ire to climate action, I want to explain why I feel our best hope is primarily political (I'll actually do something in the next post, I promise!). My reasoning gets down to three things: First, we need massive action immediately. Second, lifestyle/behavioral changes will only come on any meaningful scale with incentives and infrastructure. Finally, we must open and streamline the path for existing technologies, which are sufficient to save us (sorry, Bill Gates).
The first argument really drives the other two, and I assert it simply because we have been asleep at the wheel for so long while greenhouse gas emissions have exploded. We have very little time to do quite a lot. Here is what we know about keeping warming to 2.7ºF (1.5ºC) above pre-industrial levels, a fuzzy line above which we will confront very expensive and vast social and environmental disruption, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC): We must halve emissions in ten years and reach net zero carbon additions by 2050. At this point we invoke all the clichés, like "moon shot," "war footing," and, dare I say, "New Deal."
Such mobilization comes only through large-scale policy implementation and spending programs, which in turn can only come from governments. Realistically, action may happen more quickly in autocracies such as China, the world's biggest emitter, leaders willing. The other gas giants are democracies — the U.S., the E.U., India — and citizens need to hold politicians accountable. Most people not only believe in human-caused climate change today, but they also are hungry for action. This attitude is growing in the U.S. and globally, which can translate into political will (see chart below). I think this kicking of sitting politicians' asses is the best we can hope for from most citizens now, which brings me to my second point.
More than a quarter of the U.S. population is "alarmed" about climate change, up from 11% just five years before, according to surveys by the Yale Program on Climate Communication.
Efforts to change people's behavior to prevent environmental damage have been going on for decades, and yet in the U.S., only a third of solid waste is recycled, SUV and pick-up trucks dominate vehicle sales and keep growing, and bottled water and beef remain loved by consumers. There is a debate between personal lifestyle and political change as agendas for a climate fix, but although both are ultimately necessary, we simply don't have time to focus on the former, at least not through individual-by-individual education campaigns. When the house is burning down because Ernest fell asleep in bed with a lit cigarette, it's a little late to convince him to quit smoking.
Besides, "education" isn't always done right. Perhaps you've been a victim of flight/meat/you-name-it shaming. Denigrating people for lifestyle choices is usually counterproductive and sometimes hypocritical. It is divisive, and deflects responsibility from the fossil fuel interests who are way less innocent than your aunt who flies to visit her grandchildren in Tuscon. And many of these choices aren't influential enough anyway: If everyone stopped flying, we would get less than a three percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Yes, we'll all be better off if we eat less meat, bike and walk more, and replace our lightbulbs with LEDs, but these too will best occur through policy changes in concert with a good understanding of behavioral economics and groupthink. Incentives and popular regulations (you heard me right, check this out), infrastructure (frequent, fast, on-time trains), and research (feed you steer seaweed!) will go a lot further than dirty looks and self-righteous lectures. Buy-in is much more likely when people feel a genuine pride in climate-friendly choices made of their own volition.
So we come to my third point. John Kerry, Biden's international envoy on climate change and a man whom I respect greatly, made an unfortunate comment recently. He said that half of the necessary carbon reductions must come from technologies not yet invented. This feeds the technophilia such as described in Bill Gates's new book, which has been criticized for underplaying renewables and the role of politics, while overplaying engineering as a primary path to "avoid a climate disaster." But, as Kerry implies, these solutions are nowhere near viable yet (nor cost-effective, and may in fact be dangerous, I might add). Meanwhile, we already have the means to achieve net zero by 2050 with existing technology.
Wind energy supplies 7% of U.S. electricity, and 57% of the electricity in Denmark (OECD, 2019). Image: Union of Concerned Scientists.
The political connection here is that we must, through our governments, streamline and incentivize current technology, and expand infrastructure to support it, such as installing charging stations and modernizing the electricity grid. And let's not forget to de-incentivize fossil fuels, which are still subsidized by an estimated $4.7 trillion a year globally according to the International Monetary fund.
Keeping our climate livable is the greatest challenge humanity has ever faced. For decades, many have had the foresight to acknowledge this and worked arduously for change, yet emissions — and temperatures — continued to rise. Time is becoming very short, but the good news now is that we absolutely have the means to meet the challenge. Our elected representatives must be pushed to embrace that insight before it's too late. They must massively promote renewables, halt the use of carbon-based fuels and recognize them as the fossils they are, and make the necessary individual choices compelling, easy, and affordable.
Prometheus's black fire fueled the Industrial Revolution and led to incredible technologies which elevated millions to a material security, but it is high time to extinguish it. In fact, the Greek playwright Aeschylus provides an encouraging ending to the story: Prometheus makes peace with Zeus, is freed from torment, and becomes his prophet. Perhaps by unbinding politics we can release this Titan's cool intellectual side and invoke his literal name. Prometheus means "forethinker."
Thanks to all of you who read my first blog, made comments, and began following me. Special thanks to my friend and Penn State colleague Carolee Bull, who turned me onto an activist opportunity. I also owe much of my general argument in this post to Michael Mann and his new book, The New Climate War, which I highly recommend.
Posts will be every two weeks. I link to major sources, but contact me if you'd like additional sources. And please share this blog and spread the word!

Although organic foods may be more costly, eating clean does not have to be. You just need to plan your meals and store your foods properly. Last week I purchased a weeks worth of food shopping for me & my partner, there was absolutely NO processed or man-made products in there. In fact, it was more than a weeks worth, as there was several things in there that would last a lot longer. The total bill, £42.00!
Now, I know to some people that may sound expensive, but if you are putting a price on your health, and the health of your family & children then maybe you need to reassess your spending priorities else where! Because I know for a fact that some of my clients have said "oooh that's a lot", but then they have happily spent £52 on the latest computer game, and £35 on a take away for the family……. do you get my point???
Anyway, here are my tips on eating healthy on a budget!
Establish your weekly/monthly budget. Know what you have to spend and make your shopping list fit.
Prepare your meal plan for the week so that your can write your shopping list accordingly.
Don't tie yourself to one store. Pick & choose where you shop! In the UK you have the option to shop at the budget stores, and believe me their food is every bit as good as the main four supermarkets (sometimes better!).
Fresh Veg & Fruit can often be purchased at the local markets and at a better value per kg than some supermarkets, so check out your options.
Purchase meat to freeze and store, don't just pile it up in the fridge and let it go out of date.
Make sure that your portion sizes are suitable and not too big, this will help food last longer AND work towards your weight loss goals at the same time.
Don't be sucked in by special offers. If you do not need something do NOT buy it. Avoid pre-packed foods! It will only act as temptation to deviate from your plan.
Shop online line if you are easily led, and stick to your pre-planned shopping list!
Reduce your eating out bill. If you enjoy take outs or meals out, or even just drinks out, see if you can reduce this cost, as all of these things will add to your calories and slow down your weight loss.
Make foods that will last. Use your left over vegetables and meat to whip up a stew or soup that you can freeze for another day. Make sure that you don't throw food away that can be used!
Do you really need a whole bottle of Prosecco every night? Look at your alcohol consumption. Remember that alcohol is highly calorific and can double, and in some cases triple your calorie intake for a day. Start to look at alcohol as a treat, not as a relaxation therapy!
Much of the process of shopping on a budget is common sense, but I know so many people will only shop in ONE particular store. Stop it! shop around! Get more for your money & start eating a cleaner healthier more nutritious diet today!
Why not download my FREE Recipe Ebook today and see what kind of culinary delights I have conjured up in the Kitchen for you in the past.
Each recipe has full Instructions, Ingredients, Calorie Value and MacroNutrient Breakdown.
It took some time to put it all together, but there is some lip-smacking meal options in there.
Just try putting in a little bit of effort, and you will be repaid ten fold. Your body will look and feel better, your concentration will improve, your energy levels increase and you will feel generally quite Awesome!
But there is more, if you like what you see in the FREE EBOOK, then why not check out the Awesome Kitchen Club? A monthly club that costs next to nothing, but gives you a plethora of healthy, simple & delicious recipes EVERY single month!

You can batten the hatches against a storm, but bureaucracy is harder to ride out. Last week, one of the strongest Atlantic hurricanes on record made a direct hit on the northern Bahamas and stalled there, destroying nearly half the homes on Great Abaco and Grand Bahamas islands. Days later, with their homes in ruins and food and water scarce, hundreds of fleeing Bahamians were asked to leave a ferry bound for Fort Lauderdale, Fla., because they didn't have a U.S. visa — despite visas not being required in the past. And while U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials blamed the ferry operator, the federal government announced Wednesday it wouldn't be extending the Dorian survivors temporary protected status.
We Don't Really Know How Stressed Americans Are About Climate
The Midwest has been drenched by rain and beset by floods. California is bracing for wildfires after several years of record-breaking burns. Hurricane season is just getting into gear in the Atlantic Ocean, which has been hit by more storms than usual over the past three years, and those storms have been above-average in intensity. Heat waves have been increasing across the country for decades. Just last weekend, New Yorkers were being warned to use less air conditioning to prevent blackouts — and to charge their phones for when the blackouts would inevitably happen.

As many of you know, my novel, "The Signature of All Things" is coming out in October. I've been posting reviews of the book on this page as they come in, and I wanted to share with you this sweet letter I just received from one of my favorite booksellers in America — Bill Stewart of Vamp & Tramp Booksellers, in Birmingham, Alabama. Bill and his terrific wife Vicky deal in rare and artist's books, and I am a TEENSY bit addicted to their wares. They are true artisanal book purveyors, and I adore them.
"Wow, Liz – just wow.
I finished your stunning book at 4:30 a.m. one recent morning, aching for a cave of mosses and another chapter.
I've taken to reading more slowly, much more slowly, these days. Instead of rushing through books, I find it more enjoyable to take Mae West's advice — anything worth doing it worth doing slowly. So I've been breast-stroking through The Signature of All Things for weeks, and what a wonderful swim it was. It exercised and exorcized parts of me that I didn't know existed (wonderful) or had forgotten about (more wonderful).
I started to contact you after I read that first, short introductory section – right from the start I was captured by the voice, by the voice and what inspirited that voice, the knowledge, the angle of vision, the expansive heart.
The characters – full enough to break bread with, convincing enough to believe in even when they did impossible things. I teared up for Anna and Ambrose, the same events evoking different tears.
Thanks for writing this book, and thanks for sharing it with us.
Contemporary Fine Press & Artists' Books"
Blessings to you all, and THANK YOU, BILL!

What I have in mind are what I prefer to call "Cultural Christians." These are people who claim to be Christians because they profess to believe in Jesus, but they have no personal relationship with Him. Many of these are people who attend church regularly. Some are elders, deacons, teachers, and even pastors. Can they get to Heaven through church membership or by participating in Christian rites like baptism or communion?
Going to church or participating in Christian rituals is not another road to Heaven. Our churches are filled with unsaved people who are trusting in their works to get them to Heaven. But the Bible says, "For by grace you have been saved through faith… not as a result of works, that no one should boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9).
In an interview I conducted recently with Dr. Robert Jeffress, pastor of First Baptist Church in Dallas, he pointed out that two words sum up one of the fundamental differences between Christianity and all other religions in the world. Those words are "do" and "done." Regarding access to Heaven, all the false religions of the world say, "DO!" Christianity, in stark contrast, proclaims "DONE!"1 In other words, Christianity declares that Jesus did everything necessary for our salvation through His death on the cross. There is nothing we can add to that.
In the final Part 7 of this series "Are there many roads to God?", we'll get to the bottom line in answering this much asked question.
1) Two video interviews with Dr. Jeffress have been published as a video album by Lamb & Lion Ministries. The album is titled, "Absolute Truth" and can be ordered from our Online Resource Center.
2) John Ashbrook, "Billy Graham's Catholic Connection". This is just one of many examinations on the Internet of Graham's endorsement of Catholicism. There are also video interviews of him endorsing the Catholic faith.
3) Graham takes this position because he says "Catholics believe in Jesus." But, again, do they simply believe he existed (as do Muslims), or do they believe in the sense of trusting Him, and Him alone, for their salvation? If their trust is truly in Jesus, then why are they instructed to pray to Mary? A great source for unbiblical Catholic beliefs is pro-gospel.org/x2.
Churches focus almost exclusively on forgiveness of sins in regard to salvation; so much so that they never get to other vital aspects of being born again. Consider what we tell people when we witness to them–"you need your sins forgiven" Right? But the real problem is that they have a dead-to-God spirit, and no amount of forgiveness will fix that.
Hmmm . . . maybe what I said was misinterpreted, so I'll try again: There's more to salvation than just forgiveness. Both forgiveness and regeneration (i.e., moving from a dead-to-God state to a state of being alive to God in our spirits) is ALL part of the initial salvation package. It happens at once–at the moment of salvation.
Our SOULS (psyche = mind, will, and emotions) are still catching up with these truths, and that's what sanctification is–learning to "life out" at the soul level who we ALREADY ARE at the spirit level (by depending on Christ, who is our LIFE, to do it through us)!
I have been wondering if any of you saw the video clip concerning a retired U.S. military man Vallely talking about the threatened attack against Israel? It is dated 6th May – in case you haven't viewed this 'must see', here is the link.
Rodney made a good point on our Facebook group (click the "F" icon above), that we should be watching with a curious eye the 9th of Av (July/August month). I looked it up and the day falls on the Jewish Year 5770: sunset July 19, 2010 – nightfall July 20, 2010.
Aaaw! Pop went my bubble – I was SO excited as he sounded so 'official'. Jan Markell said she thought him worth listening to.
I was running around (well limping) saying things like 'this it IT, its official, its near, He's coming, I'm going, whoopee no no dusting, ironing –" All the while getting upset for Israel,the children and the awful casualty rate when God 'sticks it to em' (Brit speak, it's not rude).
Ahh, yes…kinda gave myself away didn't I, Dr.? You're on the ball!!

Feminenza in the UK is one of the founder chapters, being set up in 2000. Over the last 17 years, we have run many programmes on personal and spiritual development for women and other events. We designed and implemented a correspondence course which has been used by many other chapters worldwide, and which has provided the basis for a 3-year programme currently in development. Several of the members have been involved in the planning and delivery of international programmes run by Feminenza International.
Longstanding members meet on a regular basis. Currently, there is a group meeting regularly in London and also an online group. We are reviewing and planning what next to offer in the UK. Donations from a core group of members provide a small source of income to help fund projects, programmes and activities and we are always looking for further relevant partnerships and donations.

At mike muzzled debate, Trump-Biden clash gingerly on Covid-19, corruption
By IANS Updated: Oct 23, 2020 12:54 pm
President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential candidate former Vice President Joe Biden participate in the final presidential debate at Belmont University, Thursday, Oct. 22, 2020, in Nashville. (PTI)
New York, Oct 23 (IANS): With a microphone muzzle in place for most of the last presidential debate, a somewhat chastened US President Donald Trump took the stage with his Democratic challenger Joe Biden, fending off charges of negligence and ineptitude in facing the Covid-19 pandemic.
Trump hit back against Biden on his family's alleged foreign business dealings, calling them "corrupt" during the hour-and-a-half debate on Thursday night in Nashville, Tennessee, which was the final one held 12 days before the November 3 election.
Knowing his microphone was turned off during the introductory two minutes given to Biden at the start of each of the six topics in the debate, the President let him talk and his interruptions during the question periods were minimal, in contrast to the near chaos that marked the first debate on September 25 as the two clashed.
Except for Trump's behaviour, the debate was mostly a series of deja vu as they hashed out issues like the pandemic, race relations, inequality, the economy, the President's tax filings and Biden's family deals, which have been aired continuously during the campaign.
Allegations and counter-allegations dominated the debate with little talk of a concrete agenda.
Both sides claimed victory.
Biden's strategy was to make the case for a referendum on Trump's 46 months in office, while the President kept asking him about his eight years as Vice President.
Biden at times appeared to try to put a distance from Barack Obama, his President, over inaction on some issues he was now advocating.
To the disappointment of Trump's campaign, foreign policy was not a separate topic at the debate, with North Korea, India, Russia, China and Ukraine appearing tangentially.
In the only reference to India, Trump said" "Look at India, it's filthy, its air is filthy," as he compared the US environment to that of that country, Russia and China.
Predicting a "dark winter", Biden spoke of the 225,000 people who have died from the coronavirus pandemic and the continuing toll for which he said Trump was responsible and challenged his claim that the US was turning the corner on the disease.
Trump said that he had been able to stop the millions of deaths that had been predicted and repeated the allegation that Biden had opposed his plan to stop travellers coming in from China calling it "xenophobic".
Trump refused to categorically set the date for a Covid-19 vaccine release next month only saying it could be in November or in December with at least four companies in advanced stages of testing.
Biden said that Trump was being callous in pushing for reopening the country, but also denied the accusation that he wanted to shut down the country.
Trump raised Biden's son Hunter's business dealings as well as that of his brothers, who he said had lucrative contracts in Iraq. He alleged that some of the money must have gone to the former Vice President.
Biden was on the defensive, denying that he had received any money while not denying unequivocally about his family member's deals.
Hunter Biden, who was removed from the US military for alleged drug use and had no international business experience, is documented to have been made a director of a Ukrainian gas company with payments of tens of thousands every month when his father was dealing with that country.
He also travelled on an official plane with his father to China, where he got a deal for Chinese government-linked companies to give him over a billion dollars to invest.
On immigration, Joe Biden said: "Within 100 days, I'm going to send to the Us Congress a pathway to citizenship for over 11 million undocumented people."
Trump said that Biden had done nothing about it in the eight years as vice president and criticised what he said was the Obama administration policy of "catch and release" of criminals coming into the country illegally.
Asked about the children separated at the border when they were caught while illegally crossing into the US, Trump said that he would try to reunite them with their parents and said the separation had been done under the Obama-Biden administration policies and they had built the "cages" the children were put in.
Trump did not say anything about his own plan for merit-based immigration.
Biden hit at Trump's refusal to disclose his tax filings and a New York Times claim that he had only paid $750 in taxes in a particular year.
The President repeated his defence that his tax filings were being audited and that he had paid tens of millions in advance tax payments.
On race, Biden and the moderator, Kristen Welker, accused Trump of being divisive and insensitive to African-Americans.
Trump made the hyperbolic claim that he had done the most for African-Americans since Abraham Lincoln through his crime legislation to undo some of the harsh penal measures enacted with Biden's support that hit them hard and also cited the pre-coronavirus historic low unemployment rates for them.
Biden was forced by Welker to admit that the crime legislation he had advocated that disproportionately got thousands of African-Americans long imprisonment was a "mistake".
While Biden hit back against Trump's economic policy saying that it benefitted only the rich and the investors, the president asserted that Wall Street gave more money to Biden that to him.
Several reports have said that despite some of Trump's policies sending the stock market to new heights and Biden's threat of raising the taxes on the rich, Wall Street sent more money to Biden's and his party's campaigns.
Biden's basic appeal was for voting for what he said was his character in contrast to Trump's.
He said: "You know who I am. You know who he is. You know, his character. You know, my character, you know, reputations for honour and telling the truth."
Trump's underlying message was that economic ruination and physical insecurity awaits the nation if Biden wins.
US presidential debate

Home > Cheap Flights > Belfast
Not a traditional "must-see" city, Belfast has shot straight to the top of Lonely Planet's list of best places to visit in 2018. With quintessential Irish nightlife, breathtaking surrounding landscapes and sensational shopping opportunities, why wait to book your cheap flight to Belfast with Flybe?
Things to do in Belfast
Belfast is a city steeped in history, both ancient and modern, but with a focus firmly on the future. Nowhere is this emphasised more than in the Titanic Quarter. One of the world's largest waterfront regeneration projects, it is a bustling hub packed with attractions, including historic maritime landmarks, a world-famous film studio, an entertainment district, and one of the best museums in Ireland, Titanic Belfast.
Belfast City Hall offer free public tours every day led by an experienced guide and it's also worth a visit at night when they light up the building in a variety of colours and combinations.
Outside of the city, Northern Ireland is best known for being home to award-winning TV series Game of Thrones, providing the beautifully wild backdrop to the series' fantasy world. The Giant's Causeway – a UNESCO World Heritage site – is a must-see whatever the weather.
Events in Belfast
The Game of Thrones: The Touring Exhibition will make its debut visit to the UK and Ireland at TEC Belfast for a limited run from 11th April - 1st September. The exhibition will give fans an up-close and personal look at the artistry and craftmanship behind the Emmy award winning series, and create an interactive and immersive experience across set scences from all seven seasons like no other.
Known for its myths, legends and story telling, Ireland boasts some of the greatest writers in the English language. More recently the extraordinary wealth of crime-fiction talent is emerging and gaining international recognition. Belfast's Noireland International Crime Festival, is being held this year from 8th - 10th March at the Europa Hotel.
Places to eat in Belfast
There is no shortage of incredible places to eat in Belfast. One of Europe's culinary up-and-comers, Belfast seems to have an inordinate amount of excellent restaurants for such a small city.
Located just across the River Lagan from the Titanic Quarter, Ox is one of the city's finest. Using the best seasonal produce from local suppliers, the menu represents all that is good in Irish cooking. The summer tasting menu consists of five courses for £55 and is an absolute treat. Expect dishes like Pea, Lobster and Pickled Mussels with Buttermilk and Horseradish, Scallops with Coral Butter and Courgette Flower, and Antrim Strawberries with Camomile and Bee Pollen.


If you're struggling with your weight, you're not alone. More than one-thirds of Indians are currently overweight or obese and many have medical conditions that affect their weight. Some have tried various diets and fitness programs with little or no success. With so much available nutrition and weight loss information, most people don't know what are the scientific and safe medical options to achieve a healthy sustainable weight.
Obesity is not just about extra fat in body. It is a complex disorder of multiple etiologies characterized by excess body fat that threatens or affects not only physical and mental health but also has social and economic consequences. Obesity has been recognized as a "chronic disease" by number of health organisations across the world including "World Health Organization".
Obesity is measured with the help of two tools: BMI (Body mass index) and WC (Waist circumference). BMI is a tool calculated from a person's height and weight, and used to analyse and determine whether he/she is overweight, underweight or health. BMI is calculated by dividing the weight (in kilograms) of a person by his height in meters squared.
As per the Indian standards, BMI more than 23 amounts to overweight and BMI more than 27.5 amounts to obesity.
Along with BMI, the distribution of body fat is very important. Waist circumference is a very good indicator of unhealthy fat (central obesity) in your body. For people of Indian origin, WC of more than 90 cm in men and more than 80 cm in case of women is abnormal.
Obesity if left untreated can affect your health on numerous fronts. Some of the common problems related to obesity are type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart problems, fatty liver, chronic kidney disease, polycystic ovarian syndrome, infertility, gall stones, osteoarthritis, obstructive sleep apnea, benign intracranial hypertension, gastroesophageal reflux, urinary incontinence, repeated fungal infections of skin, depression, anxiety. Obesity is also a risk factor for variety of cancers.
We are a medically-supervised and scientific evidence based weight management center and want to help you achieve a healthy sustainable weight. At CWMC we provide you a safe, non-judgmental, and helpful environment to talk about your weight. We are a "patient-centred" clinic, offering care that is based on best-practices in the area of obesity to ensure our patients are receiving the highest standard of care.
What treatment options we offer?
Pharmacological therapy along with one of the above.
The Bariatric surgical program is led by our surgeon who performs bariatric surgeries in carefully selected candidates after thorough evaluation by the team.
What is Bariatric (Obesity) Surgery?
Members of our interdisciplinary team complete both medical and psychological assessments on patients considering bariatric surgery because not everyone is an appropriate candidate for this surgery. Patients must be emotionally and physically ready for surgery because it requires significant lifestyle changes including taking vitamin supplements as well as adhering to dietary restrictions and routine physical activity.
How will Bariatric Surgery help you?
Manage chronic medical conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, sleep apnea and obesity.
Identify challenges and build problem solving skills related to food, exercise, stress and mental health.
Who is eligible for Bariatric surgery ?
Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy is a restrictive procedure, which involves removal of 60-75% of the stomach, leaving a narrow gastric tube or sleeve. No intestines are removed or bypassed. This procedure will result in approximately a 50% loss of excess body weight in the first 6-12 months.
The mini-gastric bypass procedure has gained popularity in recent years.The mini-gastric bypass procedure is restrictive and malabsorptive. This means that the procedure reduces the size of your stomach, restricting the amount you can eat. The procedure also reduces absorption of food by bypassing up to 6 feet of intestines. Mini-gastric bypass is a quicker operation compared to traditional laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery. Operating times are reduced, on average by 50 minutes.


Toulon-Hyères Airport is a convenient entry point for the beautiful region of Provence. The airport is also a useful starting point for holidays on the French Riviera. It is only 52km from the airport to St Tropez.
Low-cost airline Ryanair has offered economical direct flights in recent years. Ryanair currently fly all year round from London Stansted. The number of flights usually increases in the summer months. Ryanair is by far the cheapest way to reach Toulon from the UK. Seasonal flights are available from London City Airport with Air France. Much more expensive indirect flights are available with airlines like KLM and Air France.
This is a very small and very laid-back airport. There are just a handful of flights a week. There is a newsagent, a duty free and a single bar/restaurant. The town of Toulon is 25km from the airport.
A bus runs to Toulon from outside the terminal. Journey time is about 45 minutes and tickets cost €1.50.
Taxis are available outside the main building. A taxi to Hyères will cost approximately €15. A taxi to Toulon approximately €50.
The only airline with year-round direct flights is Ryanair. There are seasonal flights with Air France/Cityjet, but these may be indirect.

TO MY MOTHER PREFACE. It Ithas been the aim in writing this little book to tell straightforwardly the quiet but attractive story of Whittiers Zife. I have sought to give its salient events in such a ntanner that the essential characteristics of the man might be brouglht out, and his qualities as an author thereby explained. Detailed criticism of his works has been shunned, as contrary to the plan, the scope, of t7 e biography existing contributions of that kind are ample and authoritative. At the same tinhe such estimates of Whittiers poetry have been given as shall makeplain his development of character and explain his inaportant position in American btters. In a biography, especially in one so sternly compressed within narrow limits, the object of interest is the man in his work whereas in literary criticism it may well be the work, for the better understanding of which we scrutinise the man. Huch has been the ideal in making th X PREFACE volume, however far short of it I may have fallen. I will only add that there is a pechliar satisfaction in, studying a man, a maker of Werature, like John Greenleaf Whittier, because of the beautiful correspondence between his life and his work.

title: Checking for Duplicates in an Array
category: Technical
date: 2013-03-10 5:5:5
description: Learn how to quickly check for duplicates in an array.

The Question

Suppose you have an array of integers.  For some reason, you need to check if that array contains any duplicate values in it.  If a duplicate is found, then the method should return and print that it found a duplicate.  Otherwise, it should say that it did not find any duplicates.

The Naive Approach

This problem initially might look very easy to you.  An outer loop could loop through all of the array indexes, and a second nested loop would loop through all remaining spots in the array after the outer loop's index.  If at any point the value at the second loop index equals the value at the outer loop index, then a duplicate is found!  Here's some simple code for that:

	:::java
	/**
	 * Checks an array for duplicates.
	 */
	public void checkForDuplicates() {
	  int[] input = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,3,17};
	  for(int x = 0; x < input.length; x++) {
	    for(int y = x+1; y < input.length; y++) {
	      if(input[x] == input[y]) {
	        System.out.println("Duplicate found!");
	        return;
	      }
	    }
	  }
	  System.out.println("No duplicates found.");
	}

Note that such a method would likely take an integer array as a parameter and return a boolean value.  I took a shortcut for clarity and hard-coded an array into the method.

This approach certainly works fine for detecting duplicates.  The problem here is that it does not scale well.  As a computer scientist, you should always be thinking BIG.  If you can't tell from a quick inspection, this algorithm will run in $O(n^2)$ time due to the nested second loop.  This means that as the input array grows, the algorithm will take exponentially longer to complete.

The Better Solution

Take a look at this solution and notice the difference.

	:::java
	/**
	 * Checks an array for duplicates.
	 */
	public void checkForDuplicates() {
	  int[] input = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,3,17};
	  HashMap<Integer, Boolean> numbersSeen = new HashMap<Integer, Boolean>();
	  for(int x = 0; x < input.length; x++) {
	    if(numbersSeen.containsKey(Integer.valueOf(input[x]))) {
	      System.out.println("Duplicate found!");
	      return;
	    }
	    else {
	      numbersSeen.put(Integer.valueOf(input[x]), Boolean.TRUE);
	    }
	  }
	  System.out.println("No duplicates found.");
	}

In this solution, we replaced the nested second for loop with a HashMap.  If you remember your data structures, a HashMap has roughly $O(1)$ performance for retrieving and storing key/value pairs.  This code loops through the array and at each iteration checks if the value at the current index is in the HashMap.  If it already exists in the HashMap, then that means a duplicate was found.  This algorithm only takes $O(n)$ time compared to $O(n^2)$ time with the naive approach because the main loop is $O(n)$ and nothing inside the main loop is greater than $O(1)$.

One thing I'd like to point out is that this approach will use more memory to store all of the objects associated with the HashMap.  In general, this is a trade-off that you as a programmer should try to make.  Reducing an algorithm down by orders of magnitude can have a tremendous effect on how long it takes to run.  For large data sets that can translate into hours and days.  Memory is a lot cheaper to come by than extra processors should you ever find yourself working on a program that large!
